Yeah it does make sense.

However, I had a plugin that was testing TEMPLATEPATH for the  
existence of a folder in my theme, which I naturally wanted to store  
in my child theme (so that my parent theme remained 'clean' and free  
of customizations). I just added a symlink to point to the 'real'  
location in my child theme's folder and it worked out, so crisis  
averted.

Just wanted to raise it on the list for more insight.

Thanks,
